I was looking at wait times on my app because I'm supposed to be workingand they look like they are a little bit higher?
Still great, but up a bit.
actually not sure. They play the mask and social distancing message but they don't mention eating or drinking
Hmm,
Ah. The "door frame style" are just regular metal detectors, and not the new scanners. IIRC, they've been using the metal detectors everywhere but AK and International Gateway since the parks reopened, and having people remove large metal objects from their bags (placing them in a clear plastic bag and then putting that bag in a bin before going though, and picking it up on the other side). The security CMs don't touch your bags or any of your items, but they do touch the bin to move it to the other side of the metal detector.
I’m at MK today and can see the problem is with people choosing to get in line for an attraction when it’s long (over 10-15 minutes). It’s been easy to go from attraction to attraction based on the wait time posted on MDE and be in line for only a few minutes. The longest for me is right now in Philarmagic because it’s storming and a lot of the rides are closed.I was looking at wait times on my app because I'm supposed to be working

@Perdita&Pongo that’s great! I am hoping to get the rapid test when we return, not sure if they still have it at our Walgreens (I live in a different state); did you call ahead to verify which test they use?
By the way @yulilin3 thank you for checking out non-Disney parks as it's very important to see how all theme parks are navigating our world now and not just Disney (even tho this is a Disney-oriented site). Personally, I bought the SW/BG Plat AP when it went on steep discount a month ago but haven't gone yet because I've been having a hard time getting viewpoints on how things are doing there while everyone seems focused on Disney. Your reports have been helpful to so many of us and I thank you.A friend of mine had a AoA little mermaid room reservation and got upgraded to the cabins at FW, she's very happy I told her to call
Just got back from Sea World where mask adherence was a about a 90% BUT the people who were breaking the rules were going all out. I was waiting for the dolphin show and they are leaving one row empty to social distance along with markers every 3ft on the seats for parties to separate in the same row. Anyways this huge group comes and the first person gets so close to me I had to ask her to move away a bit, then when their entire group couldn't fit all in the ron the remaining people sat in the row directly in front, clearly marked as not available, then they all decide to take off their masks, well SW is doing a fantastic job, 2 Ambassadors came over asking them to put their masks back on and not use the row clearly marked. I thanked the ambassador that was closest to me and he seemed exhausted already.
Also they have their own enforcement team, they walk around with signs reminding about masks and social distancing and are very colorful so you can't miss them
They also have a great way to unload their theaters with each row at a time. Going back Saturday night for their Electric Ocean event.
Tomorrow I'm headed to Volcano Bay, interested to see if their crowds are back
They called yesterday to confirm, so I asked how long it takes to get results and he said they do the rapid test and that I would get an email with results a few hours after the test. When I went for the test today they gave me an info sheet with the brand/name of the test they are using (at this particular Walgreens). Got my results in about an hour. Easy peasey lemon sqweasy!
I love Philharmagic. My family not so much.
A family member had to get a test per doctor's orders and it still took 4 days for results (were told it might take 7, so 4 was good)
We had a club level room at BWI booked for 8/7 for 2 adults 2 teenagers - Disney moved us to a 2 bedroom villa at Beach Club. We are still on the fence but I kind of want to go just to stay in the villa.
That's how it is for us too. I can never talk my wife into going to see it!
